I have two computers (AMD Athlon XP) with two different monitors (flat panels) Dell and Compaq.
They both are blinking off and on. Especially when loading webpages or when scrolling through a large document. I have switched out the monitors but it still does it.

Re: I have two computers (AMD Athlon XP) with two...

There seems to be a problem with the resolution on your computer. might be the resolution is too high for the monitor or for your video card. try to lower the resolution of the display to 1024x768 then check if it will do same.

if yes. try to update the video card driver of your computer. if still same, try a different monitor.if still same. it's a video card issue.

If that is a Compaq Computer then you will need to go to the Compaq Website and enter your model number and operating system and you will see the list of available drivers for download. AMD only provides drivers for their products and you won't need drivers for the CPU so you won't need to go there. Your second best option, unless you put a different sound card in the computer than the one Compaq put in it, will be the website for the sound card manufacturer.

if the orange light is on monitor. then its a no signal to monitor
